These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Acreditar na existência dourada do sol
Believing in the golden existence of the sun
Mesmo que em plena boca
Even if in full mouth
Nos bata o açoite contínuo da noite
Beat us with the continuous lash of the night
Arrebentar a corrente que envolve o amanhã
Break the chain that surrounds tomorrow
Despertar as espadas
Awaken the swords
Varrer as esfinges das encruzilhadas
Sweep the sphinxes from the crossroads
Todo esse tempo foi igual a dormir no navio
All this time it was like sleeping on the ship
Sem fazer movimento
Without making movement
Mas tecendo o fio da água e do vento
But weaving the thread of water and wind
Eu, baderneiro, me tornei cavaleiro
I, troublemaker, became a knight
Malandramente, pelos caminhos
Mischievously, along the paths
Meu companheiro 'tá armado até os dentes
My companion is armed to the teeth
Já não há mais moinhos como os de antigamente
There are no more mills like there used to be
Lara uê laiá
Lara uê laiá
Lara uê laiá
Lara uê laiá
